I'm in the same boat as you are at this point. Got a custom Limited gun a couple years ago, but haven't been able to get out and shoot near as much as I'd hoped (less than 3,000 rounds through it at this point). I love the custom gun and I'm a big 1911 fan, but I shoot a mildly modified Glock as good as my 2011 on any given day. I use a G19 at work and shot one for some time in Production. Like you I may unload the 2011 and mags and go back to Glock, but still debating at this point. Let us know how it goes.

Saw this earlier today. Not sure where his hits are, but who cares? Looks like the movie is going to be pretty good just on the weapons handling alone, maybe even more so than the first one. Can't wait to see it.

Gun broker has them, but the price can get pretty ridiculous so watch the auction. Otherwise scan various forum classifieds for awhile and some usually pop up at reasonable costs.

Looking forward to part two for sure.

G17L sights
in Glock
You should be able to pull a 4"-6" group at 50. The stock sights are adjustable but mine are hitting pretty high even at 15 yards using both factory and my reloads, so I will be replacing them. I'm a lefty as well so for slide-lock reloads on any pistol (that doesn't have an ambi-slide lock lever) I use the slingshot method. All said and done though the Glock 17L is really soft shooting, especially with lighter springs and reloads. Probably my favorite Glock so far.

G17L sights
in Glock
The G17L's require taller front sights than a G17 or G34. I have a .265" tall x .125" wide fiber optic Dawson front and a standard Heinie rear on mine, and it's POA/POI at 25 yards with a 125TC Bayou on top of 4.3 grains of TiteGroup at 1.100" You can go up to .585" tall. Plus if you buy a set from Dawson, they guarantee POI/POA and will send you a new front sight. Glock OEM sights suck anyway.

I was planning on going with Dawson or TTI. I guess I won't try to dig too deep on what Glock's issue was with these sights, I've just never had a Glock do that.
On a side note, how do you like that load? I settled on 4 grains of N320 pushing a 124 coated RN from ACME, OAL 1.14". Running right at 130pf, and reliable with the spring changes.

G17L sights
in Glock
So I got a good deal a new Gen 3 G17L a couple weeks ago and decided to use it for fun in Limited Minor. The POI was high of POA using off the shelf 115gr even with the rear sight bottomed out. I worked up a few loads, chrono'd them, and settled on one. Threw in 13lb recoil and 5lb striker springs and went back to the range. Now I'm about 3-4 inches high at 10yds with the factory rear sight bottomed out. I'd planned on changing the sights anyway, but anyone have any ideas why the gun would be high even with factory ammo? I've never had the factory adjustable sights on a Glock before, is this common?

No worries. If you need the vector image let me know and I can email it to you.

I emailed the vector image to Brandon and they engraved it there while building the gun.

I ordered 12/13/14. Are they pretty much dead on at 15 months right now?
I ordered September of '14. Received (as posted) in November of '15. So you should have yours any day now if that pattern repeats.

Others with more Infinity guns in their stable may want to chime in, but I tried to "set it and forget it." Drop the deposit and walk away was about the only way I was able to not pace a hole in my floor. Even that didn't always work though...but totally worth it!

Dan Wesson, agree!
Better quality... Dan Wesson PM7 or Springfield Trophy Match?
Both good guns, but I still vote for the Dan Wesson

Trace must be well versed in this process after all (as if that's really a question)...Got an email that the pistol was assembled on the 4th, and as soon as the barrel comes back from TiN coating it was getting test fired, photographed, and sent out.
I suspect the next week is going to go by slower than the last 14 months... -
So sayeth RangerTrace...he knows a thing Or two about waiting for these things.
Post pics when you get it!
Will do.

It appears we're running 50/50 RO to Loaded Target, and 1 for my choice-if-I-had-the-cash, the PM9. I'm trying to justify the PM9 at $1300 by thinking if I get a Loaded Stainless, then have the front strap checkered, flat top the slide, Dawson front FO sight, & EGW internals, I'd have spent way more than $1300. Thanks for the opinions.
PM9, buy once cry once...then buy another. Soak up tears with beer.

Like the other guys said, clean and lube the bar and check the screws. Also, I had to use a headlamp and operate the press handle slowly to watch the primer bar travel backward early on with my 550 when it quit picking up primers. Seems a spent primer had gotten back in there and was interfering with the movement.

The great thing about getting into it now is there are a good number of great builders out there, it would seem. No matter what direction you go you'll probably not have any buyer's remorse.

If they asked you that, I would estimate that your pistol is virtually finished........
I'm sure hoping so! This Saturday marks 20 years since I raised my right hand to serve. It'd be awesome to have it finished around then.
